Located along US Highway 53, this Iron Range community is home to the World’s Largest Freestanding Hockey Stick (and Puck), the United States Hockey Hall of Fame and one of the area’s most breathtaking sites, the Leonidas Overlook Mineview. This mine overlook reflects more than a century of mining activity, dating back to 1901, when production first began along the Iron Range. The Fayal Pond Trail System will delight and refresh the weary traveler. It’s the perfect spot to stretch your legs and enjoy a picnic with its three-tier lit fountain and floating bridge. Nearby, you’ll find Veteran’s Lake Park, with a public beach and boat access. There’s also a terrific golf course to take advantage of -- the Eveleth Municipal Golf Course.
